The Château de Josselin is a two-faced building whose architectural details tell a thousand-year-old story. Standing on a rocky outcrop, it overlooks the Oust valley. On the river side, an austere facade evokes the feudal struggles of the Middle Ages. On the courtyard side, a more refined sculpted granite facade offers a particularly well-preserved example of Breton architecture from the end of the 15th century and the beginning of the 16th century.

The castle's imposing towers are reflected in the River Oust. Owned by the Rohan family, one of the oldest families in Brittany, it is the symbol of this pretty town. Plan half a day to stroll through the charming streets of this "petite cité de caractère" (small, particularly picturesque town) and also visit the basilica.
